Description

An 5th Thursday in a month means special topic workshops! Learn something new in Shag or Balboa! 

7:30 - 9:00 PM "Bal-ify your Lindy" w/ Matt & Jen

Curious about Balboa and need an easy on-ramp to the dance? Worried you don't have enough 'stuff' for your Balboa dances? Don't worry! With a couple of key tips, we'll get you dancing Bal Swing and with content you can easily adapt from Lindy Hop. You may even get two-for-one and learn something you can put into both dances!

7:30 - 9:00 PM "Chill with Shag" w/ Zach & Megan

The workshop will involve exercises to get folks to relax their knees and ankles, and do their footwork in a way that reduces body impact and excess effort. Will probably also cover switching between shag and lindy.

Austin Swing Syndicate

The Austin Swing Syndicate holds one of the longest running and best attended weekly swing dances in the country. Since 1999 our Thursday night dance at the Texas Federation of Women’s Clubs (or as we call it, The Fed) consistently draws 200 people each week.

The Austin Swing Syndicate is a non-profit 501(c)(3), all-ages organization devoted to the care and growth of the Austin swing and Lindy Hop dance community. Austin is fortunate to have one of the largest, best, and friendliest swing dance communities in the United States. Our goal is to maintain this supportive and welcoming environment for as diverse a group as Austin has to offer!
